First off, thanks to everyone who came out to see Ashley Gold and the boys at Cause tonight. It was blustery, it was New Years Day, and we expected Lyn-Lakers to spend the evening at home, bundled in blankets, procrastination, and shame before a blazing flat screen. Instead, many of them came out for some acoustic grooving and had a great time. Really looking forward to next Sunday.

Second, a big thank you to Corina Bernstein for the wonderful photos taken at the Amsterdam Bar and Hall. They look terrific! Be sure to check out more of her craft at http://corinabernstein.photoshelter.com/Stay tuned. It's almost 5am and that's absurd. Happy New Year, everyone!

Alright folks, here's the scoop: every Wednesday this December you can find Ashley Gold and band at the Amsterdam Bar and Hall. What does that mean? Band = Andrew Foreman (bass), Erica Burton (viola), Zach Schmidt (drums), and me (guitar). The Amsterdam means an exciting new venue where music and socializing happen at night--in Downtown St. Paul. Confused yet? There's more: starting this Wed at 9pm, we'll be performing alongside some very fun guests. This week it's the Max Corcoran Project. Still puzzled? Stop by 6 W 6th Street, St. Paul at 9pm this Wed and clear up all this confusion.
